How to Make the Recipe
Now, let’s dive into the fun part—making this delicious pudim! Follow these simple steps:
- Prepare the Caramel: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar until it turns golden brown. Quickly pour the caramel into a round baking dish, tilting it to coat the bottom evenly.
- Blend the Mixture: In a blender, combine the sweetened condensed milk, whole milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Add the Cookies: Gently fold in the crushed Biscoff cookies into the blended mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Pour and Bake: Pour the mixture over the caramel in the baking dish. Place the dish in a larger baking pan filled with water (this is called a water bath) and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 45 minutes, or until set.
- Cool and Serve: Once baked, let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. To serve, run a knife around the edges and invert onto a plate. Enjoy your creamy, dreamy Pudim de Biscoff!
Pro Tips for Making the Recipe
Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your pudim turns out perfectly:
- Make sure to blend the mixture well to achieve that smooth, creamy texture.
- Don’t skip the water bath! It helps the pudim cook evenly and prevents it from cracking.
- For an extra touch, sprinkle some crushed Biscoff cookies on top before serving.
- If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought caramel sauce instead of making your own.
- Feel free to experiment with flavors—adding a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of coffee can elevate the taste!
How to Serve
This Pudim de Biscoff is a showstopper on its own, but here are some delightful serving suggestions:
- Pair it with a dollop of whipped cream for added richness.
- Serve alongside fresh berries for a pop of color and freshness.
- Drizzle with chocolate or caramel sauce for an indulgent touch.
- Enjoy it with a cup of coffee or tea for a cozy afternoon treat.
